The Wet Pack, a treat for bacteria and infections, can occur for multiple reasons. The main reason is the steam quality coming from the steam boiler. Sterilizer manufacturers require 97% quality steam. Steam quality is very hard to keep and there was no easy way to control this level of quality. When wet pack occurs, the sterilization staff needs to redo the all process, resulting in time management issues and sometimes rescheduling surgeries.

Maxi-Therm understands how important it is for a hospital to have a clean environment to avoid possible infections to patients, and that is why their steam quality controller has become an important tool in the sterilization process.

A spokesman for Maxi-Therm said: “It is important that hospitals use quality steam at all times for their sterilization process. We have developed a steam quality controller that uses high-pressure steam to give a small amount of superheat to your medium pressure steam.”

The Maxi-Therm steam quality controller is not only used in hospitals, but it is also used in various environments including humidification process for pharmaceutical plants and food industries for steam injection.
